Strickland Begs Opponent To Call
Level 10
: 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
A player raised to 5,000 from under the gun and saw action fold around to Jamie Strickland, who called from the button. The two went heads up to the flop 
, where action went check-check.
The turn came 
and the under-the-gun player checked again. Strickland threw out a bet of 5,500 and his opponent thought for about 20 seconds before letting his cards go.
"Call," Strickland said in a commanding, yet neither firm nor rude manner. He showed 
to accompany the command, putting out the challenge for future battles at the felt. Despite appearing to have lost a bit of chips from his earlier total of around 150,000, Strickland still finds himself sitting comfortably with just over an hour of play left in the evening.
